Matbod,st Assembly at pen-Mar.

Arrangements are being rapidly completed for
holding the Methodist Assembly at Pen-Mar on
Wednesday and Thursday, July goth and 2lst.
Committees from Baltimore, Washington, Ha-
gerstown and Harrisburg are working jointly to
make it great success, and bring together such
a concourse of people as have not gathered at
Pen-Mar for years. Profs. John 7. Grape and
William Rudolph have in training so selected
voices from Baltimore choirs, which, with Mr..
Charles J. Taylor and a number of Cornetists,
will furnish the choicest of vocal and instrument
tai music. The Western Maryland Railroad and
other roads centering at Hagerstown, will furnish
the best of facilities for all persons desiring to be
in attendance. The first day, Wednesday, Bishop
Andrews will preside. Noted speakers from abroad
have been invited to occupy the platform. The
second day will be Fraternity Day, when the diff
ferent branches of Methodism of Maryland and
Virginia will be represented, as well as the Gen.
trail Pennsylvania Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church. Representative ministers of
the various branches have notified the committee
